There are two different codes... Itll say the error and then specify which sensor it is. Itll say something like Bank 1 Sensor 1 or Bank 1 Sensor 2.
I've read a million of these codes at autozone smile.gif

Ive got kind of a related question. I was looking through an autozone ad this morning and i saw a scanner that reads and erases diagnostic codes on OBD II equipped vehicles. Is this what I want to check my codes for my CEL? It is constantly going on and its a pain taking it to the dealer to have them shut the thing off. thanks guys

not any OBD II reader works on our cars..
you need the one with the right protocol.. I forget which protocol we use
maybe dweet can answer this for you.

makes sense to me. my dealer is pretty far away from where i live and a lot of places around here are dumb and try to make you pay for it. I dont have CELs much, but if i did, id want to invest in my own scanner too

Our cars use the ISO protocol. Some of the scantools are good on almost all vehicles though, especially the ones that only check codes and clear the CEL. The more advanced ones may have different versions in which case you need the ISO.

next time it does come on, go to your local advance auto/pep boys/autozone and get them to read the code for it. post the code on here and we can help you make it so that the reason it is coming on is non-existent.

Its not that bad. <span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:100%">That auction only sells you the interface, the computer in the pic is not included and they wany $95. well screw them go here and get the EXACT SAME THING (really, look at the pics) for the same price, OR get it for $75 and skip the fancy little box that goes around it. you'll see what I mean, just scroll down the page and read</span>
